R help - Jan 2012 - R interactive = FALSE

I haven't been able to find an example of using R with interactive = FALSE.

How do I start R such that

1. it loads a workspace
2. then starts execution with a function (in that workspace) that I choose 

3. exits on completion

Thanks.

It will depend on your OS but on unix-alikes,

R CMD BATCH scriptname.R

(Can't remember if batch is all caps or not)
